In this episode, I talk about a potentially unexpected but game-changing topic for creatives: movement. If your brain feels foggy, blocked, or just plain stuck, the problem might be what is not included in your creative process. I’ll briefly break down some of the neuroscience behind why walking, stretching, and even pacing like a stressed-out poet can supercharge creativity. From the default mode network to dopamine boosts, I scratch the surface of how regular movement isn’t just good for your health. It’s essential for your ideas. So if you’ve been trying to think your way out of a creative block, this episode might just convince you to walk your way through it instead.
